My natural inclination, especially when confronted with the state of the world right now, is to find some nice, comfy corner of my mind and sleep in.

But that’s just an old habit.

Besides, I know from experience that nice comfy corners tend not to stay nice and comfy for long.

I’d rather wake up.

If you would too, I highly recommend listening to this talk: Engaged Dharma in a World on Fire. It was given by Kitissaro and Thanissara back in March of 2015, but it’s still relevant — maybe even more so now than back then!
